Petrus Triple

Brewed by Bavik-De Brabandere
Style: Abbey Tripel
Harelbeke, Belgium

Serve in Trappist glass, Tulip

Bottle. Hazy yellow, lowish head. Honey, apple, citrus aroma. The fruit notes go again in the flavor, relatively light body - might be the high level of carbonation. Ends on a apricot and mango note. Clay retronasal.

quite the complex tripel. Lots of flavours here, citrus, orange, lemon, ripe fruit, figs, and plums, and some yeast, and bread. wow. impressive for a 7.5%, nice finish, kinda dry. good beer!

I love Belgian beers! This one hurt me. If left a lot to be desired in all aspects. This was not a typical Belgian. It bordered on mediocre. I won’t do this one again.

Bottle at home - a free bottle from Jeppe, Thanks. Clear yellow - white head. Aroma: Fruity, unmatured fruits, honey, yeasty, light sourness. Taste: High honey, apples, sour apples, light flowery, light elderflowers, sweetness, yeasty, dusty, light sourness. Far too much honey sweetness.

Bottle. Tasted with Dedollewaitor. Tart flavor, some lemon notes, bubblegum, brief hint of bananas and yeast. it had surprisingly little character for a Belgian triple.

Clear gold/yellow with fine white head & good lacings. Yeasty and spicy aroma. Very spicy/harsh- bites your tongue. Overcarbonated - unpleasant spitzy/sprinkly in your mouth! Not very important or interesting triple!

Bottle, 11.2 oz, says Gouden tripel; Nose is yeast, fruitiness, spices, with a tart note; hazy urine yellow with a huge glass lacing off white head; flavor with tart fruitiness, spices, and a little funkiness. Not nearly a great tripel! And I have 4 other Petrus brews waiting to rate, hope they are better!

The aroma is spicy, piny, yeasty, soapy, and fruity. The appearance is hazy pale gold with a few floating particulates and a huge head. The flavor is like the aroma and quite decent. The palate is a little thin. Overall a good but not great beer.
